Psycho Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 THE CREAM IS ALWAYS IN THE CENTER I have always believed that one of the reasons why DC cannot achieve a lot of what it wants is because we have always been on the far left politically speaking while the remainder of the USA has gone to the right of the center, and this has resulted in Congress not being too cool on us. For now - I believe that if DC would abandon much of its leftist leanings and issues then we would achieve “Statehood” quickly as Congress wants to see DC embrace what Americans everywhere else are embracing. Am I suggesting selling out? No, I am not but what I am suggesting is to go with the flow for now and wait out for prevailing winds that would be more favorable on what DC people want. Sadly, too many people in DC are un-wielding and have never learned the art of compromise. Everything from a vote in Congress, Statehood, and same sex marriage are things that will not happen in most of our life-times when all is said and done. As long as many of us are un-willing to compromise, we are doing more harm than good for the District of Columbia. Now we are faced with what I see is an oncoming disastrous Fenty Administration that will give DC a bigger black eye than it already has had to date with Fenty’s highly bigot choices to make up his administration based upon age and race and let’s add to that people with minimal experience and spine. In the upcoming four (4) years the people of DC will learn that politically speaking that the cream is always in the center! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
